Migration Guidance
The prestandard PoE line card (WS-X4148-RJ45V) should be replaced with IEEE 802.3af-compliant PoE line cards to support higher per-port power and expanded capabilities. IOS Software Release 12.2(18)EW should be replaced with 12.2(25)EWA for continued maintenance and feature availability.
